It is a company run by men, the only woman in charge of a Division is the Legal Director. There are no women in the front office positions and only a few women in the commercial area attending the lowest tier of clientes.

Because there are not as many women in the organization as men so if women even want to do good an go up the ladder, she is always considered as a liability instead of an asset. Because they (men) think that somewhere these women at work will quit the job by giving more preference to their families which is totally incorrect. Men and Women are two different creatures and bring different skills at work. So it is very important to have this balance workforce ratio in any industry because men and women are actually complementary to each other.

Cognizant has great initiatives for Women employees but sometimes it cant be seen being executed at ground level . So I would recommend this place to another woman while asking her to make sure that she raises her voice if she something is going wrong around .

hard work is generally rewarded, but the biz is still very much an old boys' club.

They won’t invest in you as an employee, especially if you’re married or have children. Only work here if you’re very early on in your career.

Experiences of working mothers here vary wildly - a lot depends on your particular office/practice area/supervisors. I personally have had a positive experience as a working mother of two young kids, both born while I was working here, but my compensation is lower than that of my male peers, even those with young kids, because bonuses are pro-rated for parental leaves.
